Yep, was well into my long distance running a few years back, so I can relate. Never ran a marathon (at the time was underage for entry) but half marathons and 20 mile training runs produced that feeling. Also, when I go mountain biking with mates (who are largely better at it than me). They...

How can one define the ineffable? How can one boil down the numinous and end up with mere words? I could respond to your request with something obvious, Oxbridge and monotonous yet true. In light of the above, I won't. One could say the crux of it is contrast. Life is all about balance...

9/10 dynamic.

Maybe the world is just inherently funny on some transcendent, objective level. Or not. In which case, it probably once again falls down to an number of unknown mechanisms, probably all tied into the same old spiel about social/linguistic development etc...

Unless fusion power generation becomes a great deal more efficient, leading onto small-scale, yet high energy power sources, e.g. fusion cells in Fallout. If fusion ammunition cells can be used to power personal plasma weaponry, then it isn't too much of a stretch to suggest a fusion bomb being...

That sounds a wonderful idea, why has it never occurred to me to try this? *regrets several years of his life*

If you're finding it to be fast paced and you consider this a bad thing, just wait till you get to book seven...the pace seems to suffer an exponential slackening each chapter. Said slackening continues throughout the subsequent three books. Jordan is the only author I've ever seen pull of the...

Kind of like the Cold War, but less cold? Cheers welsh, can see how it could happen in theory, and as the OP said it will be a fusion war then the scenario of a controlled exchange becomes more likely I would say. (Fusion weapons = less Fallout per mega ton than fission right?)

^ Oh you think? Besides the general idea of superstring theory harmonics potentially relating to the thread, my post was not entirely cereal.

^ They will need to approach it a fair bit different to Lotr if it's going to turn out well...I mean in terms of hack-and-slash-Aragon-ownage scenes, the Hobbit's fairly lacking minus the battle of five armies.

^ Yeah! Watched an interview with Putin on Russia Today, he assures the world that by 2018, all Russian stadium cities west of the Urals, will be linked by a high speed rail network. Now I've never been to Russia, but from what I've heard and substantiated by my travels in Eastern Europe, that...

Just looked at your current squad, surprised to see Jon Dahl Tomasson there! Even more surprised to see that he managed 11 goals last season. Last time I saw him play was at last WC, remember thinking how useless he looked :( That's about as likely as Blackburn's bid to sign 'dinho. I'm...

I'll take you up on that, first I need to think of an answer though :D

Don't know when I first found this site, it was probably around 6-7 years ago. The board style was the same I know that much. Two things I remember getting my attention: 1) Rosh. 2) Kotario's (think that was the name of the perverted looking fat guy in question...) avatar of a pilot with cig in...

Nice job, Redding looks a little on the big side for what it's worth.

Nice. How the hell do we manage to keep up a twenty year nuclear exchange?!

The next one's better, five and six are good to. Then comes Crown of Swords, which is where the series starts declining into an endless sea of melodramatic shite. Though if you can stomach about 3000 pages of said shite, it gets good again at book eleven, the last two are better still (the last...

Agree with cleric and SkuLL largely. As you say SkuLL, the entire cosmos is music. It all started with the vibration of a (super) string, the 'frequency' of which triggered a singularity resulting in the differentiation of '0' into '+1 and -1'. The vibration goes on, as does reality. Until the...

Acid? What acid?
